| Aperçu général : | The course contains several independent parts: - General-purpose heuristic strategies for the solution optimization problems, such as simulated annealing, tabu search or genetic algorithms; the practical implementation of such methods is illustrated on various decision problems; - Learning of a mathematical programming modeling language, i.e. a computer language specially devoted to the formulation, the solution and the analysis of large-scale optimization models (linear or nonlinear programming problems); - Other numerical methods : simulation, neural networks, ... | |
|  | | |
| Objectif du cours : | The aim of this course is to develop various aspects of mathematical modeling and of problem-solving strategies as they are used in operations research. | |
|  | | |
| Pré-requis : | Operations research (introductory course). Good command of a computer programming language (Pascal, C, Basic,...) and general proficiency with PCs. | |
|  | | |
| Organisation : | Lectures and computer labs. Group and individual projects (computer implementations, reports and presentations). Oral exam. | |
|  | | |
| Notes de cours : | Notes and articles will be made available during the course, as a support to the lectures. | |
|  | | |
| Evaluation : | The evaluation will be based on the group and individual projects (written reports and oral presentation). | |
